The celebration of our patronal feast day and fall festival on Sept 24-25 was such a welcome gift! My favorite part was celebrating Mass with and for you as we thanked God for his many blessings and honored our heavenly protector Saint Gabriel. My sincere thanks to our staff, musicians, the festival chairs, and so many volunteers, including those who helped with comestibles (Latino food, grilled fare, mini donuts, the chicken dinner) and potables, the country store, bake sale, bingo, raffle, kids games, online auction, live music, set up and take down, and of course the tours of the convent (thanks Sisters!) and Chesterton Academy (thanks students!). Thanks be to God for His kindness to us and to our parish!
